我们介绍DMTET，深度3D条件生成模型，可以使用诸如粗体素的简单用户指南来合成高分辨率3D形状。它通过利用新型混合3D表示来结婚隐式和显式3D表示的优点。与当前隐含的方法相比，培训涉及符号距离值，DMTET直接针对重建的表面进行了优化，这使我们能够用更少的伪像来合成更精细的几何细节。与直接生成诸如网格之类的显式表示的深度3D生成模型不同，我们的模型可以合成具有任意拓扑的形状。 DMTET的核心包括可变形的四面体网格，其编码离散的符号距离函数和可分行的行进Tetrahedra层，其将隐式符号距离表示转换为显式谱图表示。这种组合允许使用在表面网格上明确定义的重建和对抗性损耗来联合优化表面几何形状和拓扑以及生成细分层次结构。我们的方法显着优于来自粗体素输入的条件形状合成的现有工作，培训在复杂的3D动物形状的数据集上。项目页面：https://nv-tlabs.github.io/dmtet/

随着几个行业正在朝着建模大规模的3D虚拟世界迈进，因此需要根据3D内容的数量，质量和多样性来扩展的内容创建工具的需求变得显而易见。在我们的工作中，我们旨在训练Parterant 3D生成模型，以合成纹理网格，可以通过3D渲染引擎直接消耗，因此立即在下游应用中使用。 3D生成建模的先前工作要么缺少几何细节，因此在它们可以生成的网格拓扑中受到限制，通常不支持纹理，或者在合成过程中使用神经渲染器，这使得它们在常见的3D软件中使用。在这项工作中，我们介绍了GET3D，这是一种生成模型，该模型直接生成具有复杂拓扑，丰富几何细节和高保真纹理的显式纹理3D网格。我们在可区分的表面建模，可区分渲染以及2D生成对抗网络中桥接了最新成功，以从2D图像集合中训练我们的模型。 GET3D能够生成高质量的3D纹理网格，从汽车，椅子，动物，摩托车和人类角色到建筑物，对以前的方法进行了重大改进。

深度生成模型的最新进展导致了3D形状合成的巨大进展。虽然现有模型能够合成表示为体素，点云或隐式功能的形状，但这些方法仅间接强制执行最终3D形状表面的合理性。在这里，我们提出了一种直接将对抗训练施加到物体表面的3D形状合成框架（Surfgen）。我们的方法使用可分解的球面投影层来捕获并表示隐式3D发生器的显式零IsoSurface作为在单元球上定义的功能。通过在对手设置中用球形CNN处理3D对象表面的球形表示，我们的发电机可以更好地学习自然形状表面的统计数据。我们在大规模形状数据集中评估我们的模型，并证明了端到端训练的模型能够产生具有不同拓扑的高保真3D形状。

从单视图重建3D形状是一个长期的研究问题。在本文中，我们展示了深度隐式地面网络，其可以通过预测底层符号距离场来从2D图像产生高质量的细节的3D网格。除了利用全局图像特征之外，禁止2D图像上的每个3D点的投影位置，并从图像特征映射中提取本地特征。结合全球和局部特征显着提高了符合距离场预测的准确性，特别是对于富含细节的区域。据我们所知，伪装是一种不断捕获从单视图图像中存在于3D形状中存在的孔和薄结构等细节的方法。 Disn在从合成和真实图像重建的各种形状类别上实现最先进的单视性重建性能。代码可在https://github.com/xharlie/disn提供补充可以在https://xharlie.github.io/images/neUrips_2019_Supp.pdf中找到补充

Intelligent mesh generation (IMG) refers to a technique to generate mesh by machine learning, which is a relatively new and promising research field. Within its short life span, IMG has greatly expanded the generalizability and practicality of mesh generation techniques and brought many breakthroughs and potential possibilities for mesh generation. However, there is a lack of surveys focusing on IMG methods covering recent works. In this paper, we are committed to a systematic and comprehensive survey describing the contemporary IMG landscape. Focusing on 110 preliminary IMG methods, we conducted an in-depth analysis and evaluation from multiple perspectives, including the core technique and application scope of the algorithm, agent learning goals, data types, targeting challenges, advantages and limitations. With the aim of literature collection and classification based on content extraction, we propose three different taxonomies from three views of key technique, output mesh unit element, and applicable input data types. Finally, we highlight some promising future research directions and challenges in IMG. To maximize the convenience of readers, a project page of IMG is provided at \url{https://github.com/xzb030/IMG_Survey}.

Generative models, as an important family of statistical modeling, target learning the observed data distribution via generating new instances. Along with the rise of neural networks, deep generative models, such as variational autoencoders (VAEs) and generative adversarial network (GANs), have made tremendous progress in 2D image synthesis. Recently, researchers switch their attentions from the 2D space to the 3D space considering that 3D data better aligns with our physical world and hence enjoys great potential in practice. However, unlike a 2D image, which owns an efficient representation (i.e., pixel grid) by nature, representing 3D data could face far more challenges. Concretely, we would expect an ideal 3D representation to be capable enough to model shapes and appearances in details, and to be highly efficient so as to model high-resolution data with fast speed and low memory cost. However, existing 3D representations, such as point clouds, meshes, and recent neural fields, usually fail to meet the above requirements simultaneously. In this survey, we make a thorough review of the development of 3D generation, including 3D shape generation and 3D-aware image synthesis, from the perspectives of both algorithms and more importantly representations. We hope that our discussion could help the community track the evolution of this field and further spark some innovative ideas to advance this challenging task.

The recent neural implicit representation-based methods have greatly advanced the state of the art for solving the long-standing and challenging problem of reconstructing a discrete surface from a sparse point cloud. These methods generally learn either a binary occupancy or signed/unsigned distance field (SDF/UDF) as surface representation. However, all the existing SDF/UDF-based methods use neural networks to implicitly regress the distance in a purely data-driven manner, thus limiting the accuracy and generalizability to some extent. In contrast, we propose the first geometry-guided method for UDF and its gradient estimation that explicitly formulates the unsigned distance of a query point as the learnable affine averaging of its distances to the tangent planes of neighbouring points. Besides, we model the local geometric structure of the input point clouds by explicitly learning a quadratic polynomial for each point. This not only facilitates upsampling the input sparse point cloud but also naturally induces unoriented normal, which further augments UDF estimation. Finally, to extract triangle meshes from the predicted UDF we propose a customized edge-based marching cube module. We conduct extensive experiments and ablation studies to demonstrate the significant advantages of our method over state-of-the-art methods in terms of reconstruction accuracy, efficiency, and generalizability.

近年来，由于其表达力和灵活性，神经隐式表示在3D重建中获得了普及。然而，神经隐式表示的隐式性质导致缓慢的推理时间并且需要仔细初始化。在本文中，我们重新审视经典且无处不在的点云表示，并使用泊松表面重建（PSR）的可分辨率配方引入可分化的点对网格层，其允许给予定向的GPU加速的指示灯的快速解决方案点云。可微分的PSR层允许我们通过隐式指示器字段有效地和分散地桥接与3D网格的显式3D点表示，从而实现诸如倒角距离的表面重建度量的端到端优化。因此，点和网格之间的这种二元性允许我们以面向点云表示形状，这是显式，轻量级和富有表现力的。与神经内隐式表示相比，我们的形状 - 点（SAP）模型更具可解释，轻量级，并通过一个级别加速推理时间。与其他显式表示相比，如点，补丁和网格，SA​​P产生拓扑无关的水密歧管表面。我们展示了SAP对无知点云和基于学习的重建的表面重建任务的有效性。

With the advent of deep neural networks, learning-based approaches for 3D reconstruction have gained popularity. However, unlike for images, in 3D there is no canonical representation which is both computationally and memory efficient yet allows for representing high-resolution geometry of arbitrary topology. Many of the state-of-the-art learningbased 3D reconstruction approaches can hence only represent very coarse 3D geometry or are limited to a restricted domain. In this paper, we propose Occupancy Networks, a new representation for learning-based 3D reconstruction methods. Occupancy networks implicitly represent the 3D surface as the continuous decision boundary of a deep neural network classifier. In contrast to existing approaches, our representation encodes a description of the 3D output at infinite resolution without excessive memory footprint. We validate that our representation can efficiently encode 3D structure and can be inferred from various kinds of input. Our experiments demonstrate competitive results, both qualitatively and quantitatively, for the challenging tasks of 3D reconstruction from single images, noisy point clouds and coarse discrete voxel grids. We believe that occupancy networks will become a useful tool in a wide variety of learning-based 3D tasks.

神经隐式功能的最新发展已在高质量的3D形状重建方面表现出巨大的成功。但是，大多数作品将空间分为形状的内部和外部，从而将其代表力量限制为单层和水密形状。这种局限性导致乏味的数据处理（将非紧密的原始数据转换为水密度），以及代表现实世界中一般对象形状的无能。在这项工作中，我们提出了一种新颖的方法来表示一般形状，包括具有多层表面的非水平形状和形状。我们介绍了3D形状（GIF）的一般隐式函数，该功能建模了每两个点之间的关系，而不是点和表面之间的关系。 GIF没有将3D空间分为预定义的内部区域，而是编码是否将两个点分开。 Shapenet上的实验表明，在重建质量，渲染效率和视觉保真度方面，GIF的表现优于先前的最先进方法。项目页面可从https://jianglongye.com/gifs获得。

Implicit fields have been very effective to represent and learn 3D shapes accurately. Signed distance fields and occupancy fields are the preferred representations, both with well-studied properties, despite their restriction to closed surfaces. Several other variations and training principles have been proposed with the goal to represent all classes of shapes. In this paper, we develop a novel and yet fundamental representation by considering the unit vector field defined on 3D space: at each point in $\mathbb{R}^3$ the vector points to the closest point on the surface. We theoretically demonstrate that this vector field can be easily transformed to surface density by applying the vector field divergence. Unlike other standard representations, it directly encodes an important physical property of the surface, which is the surface normal. We further show the advantages of our vector field representation, specifically in learning general (open, closed, or multi-layered) surfaces as well as piecewise planar surfaces. We compare our method on several datasets including ShapeNet where the proposed new neural implicit field shows superior accuracy in representing any type of shape, outperforming other standard methods. The code will be released at https://github.com/edomel/ImplicitVF

隐式神经网络已成功用于点云的表面重建。然而，它们中的许多人面临着可扩展性问题，因为它们将整个对象或场景的异构面功能编码为单个潜在载体。为了克服这种限制，一些方法在粗略普通的3D网格或3D补丁上推断潜伏向量，并将它们插入以应对占用查询。在这样做时，它们可以与对象表面上采样的输入点进行直接连接，并且它们在空间中均匀地附加信息，而不是其最重要的信息，即在表面附近。此外，依赖于固定的补丁大小可能需要离散化调整。要解决这些问题，我们建议使用点云卷积并计算每个输入点的潜伏向量。然后，我们使用推断的权重在最近的邻居上执行基于学习的插值。对象和场景数据集的实验表明，我们的方法在大多数古典指标上显着优于其他方法，产生更精细的细节和更好的重建更薄的卷。代码可在https://github.com/valeoai/poco获得。

我们为3D形状生成（称为SDF-Stylegan）提供了一种基于stylegan2的深度学习方法，目的是降低生成形状和形状集合之间的视觉和几何差异。我们将stylegan2扩展到3D世代，并利用隐式签名的距离函数（SDF）作为3D形状表示，并引入了两个新颖的全球和局部形状鉴别器，它们区分了真实和假的SDF值和梯度，以显着提高形状的几何形状和视觉质量。我们进一步补充了基于阴影图像的FR \'Echet Inception距离（FID）分数的3D生成模型的评估指标，以更好地评估生成形状的视觉质量和形状分布。对形状生成的实验证明了SDF-Stylegan比最先进的表现出色。我们进一步证明了基于GAN倒置的各种任务中SDF-Stylegan的功效，包括形状重建，部分点云的形状完成，基于单图像的形状形状生成以及形状样式编辑。广泛的消融研究证明了我们框架设计的功效。我们的代码和训练有素的模型可在https://github.com/zhengxinyang/sdf-stylegan上找到。

在视觉计算中，3D几何形状以许多不同的形式表示，包括网格，点云，体素电网，水平集和深度图像。每个表示都适用于不同的任务，从而使一个表示形式转换为另一个表示（前向地图）是一个重要且常见的问题。我们提出了全向距离字段（ODF），这是一种新的3D形状表示形式，该表示通过将深度从任何观看方向从任何3D位置存储到对象的表面来编码几何形状。由于射线是ODF的基本单元，因此可以轻松地从通用的3D表示和点云等常见的3D表示。与限制代表封闭表面的水平集方法不同，ODF是未签名的，因此可以对开放表面进行建模（例如服装）。我们证明，尽管在遮挡边界处存在固有的不连续性，但可以通过神经网络（Neururodf）有效地学习ODF。我们还引入了有效的前向映射算法，以转换odf to＆从常见的3D表示。具体而言，我们引入了一种有效的跳跃立方体算法，用于从ODF生成网格。实验表明，神经模型可以通过过度拟合单个对象学会学会捕获高质量的形状，并学会概括对共同的形状类别。

We propose a differentiable sphere tracing algorithm to bridge the gap between inverse graphics methods and the recently proposed deep learning based implicit signed distance function. Due to the nature of the implicit function, the rendering process requires tremendous function queries, which is particularly problematic when the function is represented as a neural network. We optimize both the forward and backward passes of our rendering layer to make it run efficiently with affordable memory consumption on a commodity graphics card. Our rendering method is fully differentiable such that losses can be directly computed on the rendered 2D observations, and the gradients can be propagated backwards to optimize the 3D geometry. We show that our rendering method can effectively reconstruct accurate 3D shapes from various inputs, such as sparse depth and multi-view images, through inverse optimization. With the geometry based reasoning, our 3D shape prediction methods show excellent generalization capability and robustness against various noises. * Work done while Shaohui Liu was an academic guest at ETH Zurich.

We propose an end-to-end deep learning architecture that produces a 3D shape in triangular mesh from a single color image. Limited by the nature of deep neural network, previous methods usually represent a 3D shape in volume or point cloud, and it is non-trivial to convert them to the more ready-to-use mesh model. Unlike the existing methods, our network represents 3D mesh in a graph-based convolutional neural network and produces correct geometry by progressively deforming an ellipsoid, leveraging perceptual features extracted from the input image. We adopt a coarse-to-fine strategy to make the whole deformation procedure stable, and define various of mesh related losses to capture properties of different levels to guarantee visually appealing and physically accurate 3D geometry. Extensive experiments show that our method not only qualitatively produces mesh model with better details, but also achieves higher 3D shape estimation accuracy compared to the state-of-the-art.

本地化隐式功能的最新进展使神经隐式表示能够可扩展到大型场景。然而，这些方法采用的3D空间的定期细分未能考虑到表面占用的稀疏性和几何细节的变化粒度。结果，其内存占地面积与输入体积均别较大，即使在适度密集的分解中也导致禁止的计算成本。在这项工作中，我们为3D表面，编码OCTFIELD提供了一种学习的分层隐式表示，允许具有低内存和计算预算的复杂曲面的高精度编码。我们方法的关键是仅在感兴趣的表面周围分发本地隐式功能的3D场景的自适应分解。我们通过引入分层Octree结构来实现这一目标，以根据表面占用和部件几何形状的丰富度自适应地细分3D空间。随着八十六是离散和不可分辨性的，我们进一步提出了一种新颖的等级网络，其模拟八偏细胞的细分作为概率的过程，并以可差的方式递归地编码和解码八叠结构和表面几何形状。我们展示了Octfield的一系列形状建模和重建任务的价值，显示出在替代方法方面的优越性。

Neural signed distance functions (SDFs) are emerging as an effective representation for 3D shapes. State-of-theart methods typically encode the SDF with a large, fixedsize neural network to approximate complex shapes with implicit surfaces. Rendering with these large networks is, however, computationally expensive since it requires many forward passes through the network for every pixel, making these representations impractical for real-time graphics. We introduce an efficient neural representation that, for the first time, enables real-time rendering of high-fidelity neural SDFs, while achieving state-of-the-art geometry reconstruction quality. We represent implicit surfaces using an octree-based feature volume which adaptively fits shapes with multiple discrete levels of detail (LODs), and enables continuous LOD with SDF interpolation. We further develop an efficient algorithm to directly render our novel neural SDF representation in real-time by querying only the necessary LODs with sparse octree traversal. We show that our representation is 2-3 orders of magnitude more efficient in terms of rendering speed compared to previous works. Furthermore, it produces state-of-the-art reconstruction quality for complex shapes under both 3D geometric and 2D image-space metrics.

我们提出了一种有效的方法，用于从多视图图像观察中联合优化拓扑，材料和照明。与最近的多视图重建方法不同，通常在神经网络中产生纠缠的3D表示，我们将三角形网格输出具有空间不同的材料和环境照明，这些方法可以在任何传统的图形引擎中未修改。我们利用近期工作在可差异化的渲染中，基于坐标的网络紧凑地代表体积纹理，以及可微分的游行四边形，以便直接在表面网上直接实现基于梯度的优化。最后，我们介绍了环境照明的分流和近似的可分辨率配方，以有效地回收全频照明。实验表明我们的提取模型用于高级场景编辑，材料分解和高质量的视图插值，全部以三角形的渲染器（光栅化器和路径示踪剂）的交互式速率运行。
